You’ve got a face for a smile you know
A shame you waste it when you’re breaking me slowly
But I’ve got a world of chances for you
I’ve got a world of chances for you
I’ve got a world of chances
Chances that you’re burning through

I’ve got a paper and pen
I go to write you goodbye and that’s when I know
I’ve got a world of chances for you
I’ve got a world of chances for you
I’ve got a world of chances
Chances that you’re burning through

Oh, I’m going my own way
My faith has lost its strength again
Oh, it’s been too hard to say
We’ve fallen off the edge again
We’re at an end
We’re at an end

Maybe you’ll call me someday
Hear the operator say the number’s no good
And that she had a world of chances for you
She had a world of chances for you
She had a world of chances
Chances you were burning through
Chances you were burning through
Chances you were burning through

Inside this life,
Under it’s spell,
I close my eyes,
And live to tell.

The hands we’re dealt,
Will never disappear.
Death she grows near.

CHORUS
People change,
And instantly.
I’m not the same girl,
I used to be.
I can’t erase all the memories,
But I can explain,
If you’re listening.
People change,
Not just me.

Locked up in silence,
A living hell.
My heart still beats,
So I bid farewell.
The loving hand that saved me,
Held too tight.
His darkness weighs
On me at night.

CHORUS
People change,
And instantly.
I’m not the same girl,
I used to be.
I can’t erase all the memories,
But I can explain,
If you’re listening.
People change,
Not just me.

I never asked,
Or wanted to.
You stepped across my threshold,
How could you?

These lyrics come from the band Little Blue Pill portrayed on the hit TV show Castle. You can catch this show in it’s eighth season on ABC Monday nights at 10PM EST. I believe this song is featured in Season 2 of the show but I don’t recall what episode.

If you couldn’t already tell I adore this show ❤ it’s definitely one of my favorites so I don’t mind shamelessly promoting it of my own free will, especially when it represents so perfectly words I want to say but can’t find the words on my own. r

I was born in a thunderstorm
I grew up overnight
I played alone
I’m playing on my own
I survived

Hey
I wanted everything I never had
Like the love that comes with light
I wore envy and I hated that
But I survived

I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go
Where the wind don’t change
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
No hope, just lies
And you’re taught to cry into your pillow
But I survived

I’m still breathing [4x]
I’m alive [4x]

I found solace in the strangest place
Way in the back of my mind
I saw my life in a stranger’s face
And it was mine

I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go
Where the wind don’t change
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
No hope, just lies
And you’re taught to cry into your pillow
But I survived

I’m still breathing [4x]
I’m alive [4x]

You took it all, but I’m still breathing [8x]

I have made every single mistake
That you could ever possibly make
I took and I took and I took what you gave
But you never noticed that I was in pain
I knew what I wanted; I went out and got it
Did all the things that you said that I wouldn’t
I told you that I would never be forgotten
And all in spite of you

And I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m alive (You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
(You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
I’m alive (You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
(You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
I’m alive (You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
(You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
I’m alive

I’m alive [4x]

This song reminds me of the character Kate Beckett from the abc original show “Castle”. If you know the show and Beckett’s backstory you’d know how much this song relates to her and just how much of a fighter this character really is. Normally I wouldn’t advertise for a large network like abc but since the show is so amazing despite being under the threat of being cancelled I’d recommend it to anyone and everyone. I can provide a brief synopsis for anyone who asks. 🙂
